When I turn my car off. (83'242dl.B23) The check battery light stays on. Then, when I turn the key to the on position right before starting it, the check batt. light goes out and the oil light turns on. Note: None of the other engine startup warninlg ights (at the bottom of the instrument cluster) turn on when the key is turned to the on position, only the oil. (And yes, they all worked perfectly at one point) Then, the car starts normally and the light turns off like normal and car is fine to drive (no other warning light stays on).
I have recently returned a new battery(unless that one is bad as well) so, it should not be the battery. Is it the ignition switch? Alternator? Some other wiring? Fuse panel? Is there a reset button? Might the new battery be bad as well?
